Gone are the days of building multifamily projects sans consideration for those who can’t afford market rate housing in Beverly Hills. On Jan. 28 the City Council reaffirmed its commitment to affordable housing with a 5-0 vote to extend the Interim Inclusionary Housing Ordinance through Nov. 15.
“We need affordable housing. We need a lot of it,” Mayor John Mirisch said just before the unanimous vote to require inclusionary housing for multifamily developments with five or more units.
